The Album

​The sailors aboard the Butterfly Ship all accompany Ever (our main character) on her journey, and bring the story to life through music. The show features a full score of original music which draws upon a variety of styles to support our storytelling.

From singing trees, to a dynamic band of sailors, music is a huge part of this show! The music stands on its own: in addition to our full-length theatrical show, we offer smaller thematic performances based entirely on the music.

We are currently in the midst of recording our first soundtrack. A collaboration of songwriters, poets, instrumentalists and engineers, the album promises to be an exciting experience for the listener. The album includes original recordings of nature soundscapes to give our story a real-life natural setting.

Our upcoming album features songs written by 4 of crew members. Here's one of our songs from the show:

The two girls sit together quietly by the tree as a strong breeze rustles the leaves on its branches. The tree stands near a stream where the water used to flow through so sweet and clear sounding, like music, filling up the gully almost to the tops of its banks. -The Butterfly Ship, the novel
